[PATCH 02/13] sched/balancing: Rename scheduler_tick() => sched_tick()

From: Ingo Molnar
Date: Fri Mar 08 2024 - 06:19:08 EST


- Standardize on prefixing scheduler-internal functions defined
in <linux/sched.h> with sched_*() prefix. scheduler_tick() was
the only function using the scheduler_ prefix. Harmonize it.

- The other reason to rename it is the NOHZ scheduler tick
handling functions are already named sched_tick_*().
Make the 'git grep sched_tick' more meaningful.
